Answer:

A. To demonstrate Equiano's lack of knowledge about European customs due to living in an isolated part of the continent.

Explanation:

Olaudah Equiano in the autobiography written by him demonstrated all the travails he went through while being transported across the Atlantic Ocean by the White men. In paragraph five, Equiano asked a series of questions to his fellow countrymen on board with him on the ship. He asked about the country of the white men, and if they had their own women. He also asked about how the vessel could go and was amazed when the workings of the vessel were explained to him.

All these show that Equiano had no knowledge of the European way of life because he had lived in Africa all his life.

The relative pronoun "that" is used with an essential clause and the relative pronoun "which" is used with a nonessential clause
Lyrx [107]

Short answer: The pronoun "that" precedes details about the noun that are essential, while the pronoun "which" precedes those that are non-essential or can be eliminated without changing the meaning of the sentence.

Explanation:

In grammar, the function of "which" and "that" is to precede or introduce clauses, especially those that provide information about the noun. Additionally, these two words differ slightly on their function because they introduce specific types of clauses.

Indeed, the use of "that" shows the information introduced is essential or cannot be eliminated as in the sentence "My sister that is living in Europe get married" because the detail "is living in Europe" is essential to define "My sister". This does not occur with "which" because this precedes information that can be eliminated or it is not essential as in "My car, which is brand-new, just broke down" because in this sentence the key information is that the car broke down.

This question is missing the answer choices. I was able to find the complete question online. Since the excerpt is the same, I will omit it. The choices are as follows:

Based on this description of the Buchanans' house, what inference can be made about many East Egg residents?

A. They hide their unattractive qualities beneath beautiful, light, and dreamy appearances.

B. They commonly ride horses in the afternoon or early evening hours.

C. They are more sophisticated than West Egg residents, because they have less money.

D. They place more importance on the appearance of their homes than in anything else.

Answer:

Based on the description, the inference we can make is:

A. They hide their unattractive qualities beneath beautiful, light, and dreamy appearances.

Explanation:

This question refers to "The Great Gatsby," a novel by F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896-1940), one of the greatest American authors of the 20th century. This novel explores themes such as the moral decadence of the American society as well as the corruption of the American dream.

In the excerpt we are analyzing here, the narrator, Nick, is describing the Buchanans' home. Nick is cousin to Daisy Buchanan, who is married to Tom, an "old money" millionaire. <u>The grandeur of their mansion, its beauty and opulence, is nothing but a façade. Those who live inside it are shallow, egotistical, unfaithful people. Tom and Daisy, along with their friend Jordan Baker, live their days trying to escape boredom. To do so, they party, they cheat, and they gossip. Their manners and values are tainted, and their happiness is fake.</u>

With that in mind, we can choose letter A as the best inference:

A. They hide their unattractive qualities beneath beautiful, light, and dreamy appearances.

HELP!!! ASAP PLZ!!!!!!!
Trava [24]

Answer:

"And I must pause till it come back to me"

Explanation:

According to Marc Antony's Speech

from Shakespeare's Julius Caesar, he speaks to his fellow Romans at Caesar's burial. During the course of his speech, he makes reference to Brutus' words saying that Caesar was ambitious and Mark Anthony rebuffs this by giving different instances where Caesar didn't show ambition, but humility and urges the people to mourn him.

Therefore, the statement that best summarizes Antony's overall claim in this speech is "And I must pause till it come back to me".

This is because his overall claim is that he loves Caesar and his heart is with him and he must pause so that it comes back to him (his heart)
